Sounds like a case of the port not calling the kettle back.

Facebook was very timely with this one...

@BernieTheBernie but not matter how sloppy they are, they make damn sure nobody can smuggle in dangerous H2O. That would be catastrophic.
Do you know how many people that stuff has killed???

But still ... How/why do you even do something like that?
How?
Magic says: Hiding the window borders, painting your own, and fucking upWM_NCHITTEST
.
At a previous company, they kept pushing us to do that. We finally got them to back down (and roll the change back) when we pointed out that we were constantly fixing various bugs with it ("Look, it's costing us a lot of money" - then they listened). Who would have guessed that the borders look different based on themes and Windows versions!

As a result, the whole lane tends to actually move a bit faster than the "fast" lane
Since I stay in that lane when towing, I've also noticed that it usually tends to be the most efficient lane.

But when presented with 018 it appears to parse it to (decimal) 1 and discard the rest of the literal without printing a diagnostic at any error level, which is bad.

?
Must be a version thing. I tested on a work box running an ancient version of PHP and I forgot they've been tightening up their game since 5.x
Ah, that would do it. You'll be glad to know then that these days
0=="not zero"
is false,
I wonder how many places that change caused things to break.
edit: No I don't

or has "trying to fly without fuel" always been an antipattern for jet planes? Don't know, I am not into planes so much...
I'd say it's more of an antipattern for pilots.

WTF? Oh yeah, when ubuntu goes to sleep, it logs me off and kills all processes.
Probably some IT security that makes the machine "more" "secure".
